and screws as required. Discontinue using
tool if air leaks at trigger area or from cap
exhaust. Contact your dealer.

nose, preventing tool
from operating. Remove jammed fastener. Check magazine
for incorrect, bent, or loose fasteners, and
discard. Reload using Grip-Rite nails.

TOOL CHECKS
Keep your nailer in top working condition by checking it daily. See your

Workpiece Contact & Trigger
Check workpiece contact for proper operation before each use.
